C130 (1/2)

This time, Zhang Long disguised himself as a merchant.

He had dealt with a number of merchants in the escort office in the early days, and he knew what a businessman was, so he pretended to be decent.

After arriving at River Qu County, in order to expose his identity due to his impatience, he did not rush to find out about these killing warriors. Instead, he called himself a merchant from Beijing and went around asking about some mountain goods.

Slowly, he found some clues. According to the local people, not long ago, there was a group of twenty or so vicious people, each of whom was very skilled. As a result, the Prefect of Eastern Mountain Prefecture gathered two hundred yamen runners from all the counties to arrest them.

As a result of this, the Prince was furious. The Prince had personally ordered one hundred of his elite troops to come to the Eastern Mountain County to capture this damn thief.

The perception he had gained from traveling in the Jianghu for many years had told him that the identities of these people were not simple. Relying on just over twenty people to break out of the encirclement of more than two hundred people and wipe them all out, no matter how useless these yamen runners were, this was not something an ordinary person could do.

Only those elite warriors who had fought in the battlefields for years could do so. Thinking of this, Zhang Long was sure that these people were the warriors that his brother Na Lu Tu had summoned from the Kulman tribe.

However, at this time, these people were hiding in the mountains. Not to mention Zhang Long, even Ye Feian's hundred elite soldiers were unable to find any trace of them.

The helpers Xue Kaishan had chosen to avenge this time were all extremely powerful. Any one of them could survive in the Wolf Mountain alone for ten to fifteen days, let alone twenty companions.

When they were deep in the mountains, they lived well on their own good archery and the natural hunting skills of the Kurmans. At this moment, the pursuers were unable to find the whereabouts of the crowd.

It was not until this day that one of them fell gravely ill from the heavy rain. Everyone had to risk sending someone down the mountain to get their medicine.

This trip down the mountain had exposed the location of the crowd. The group of people were besieged on the mountain. After a bitter battle, everyone was still captured.

The commander of this hundred-man squad had been stationed at the border and had joined the army. Therefore, he had recognized them as barbarians. He immediately sent some men to deliver a letter to Ye Feian, while he himself led the rest of the barbarians to escort them back to the palace.

Ye Feian was greatly shocked when he heard the news. He thought that this time, it was Lian He who had interfered, but he didn't expect that these people were actually from the barbarian race. Could it be that the barbarian race wanted to take advantage of these years when the two countries had been on good terms and the imperial government was paralyzed to invade and occupy the Xuan realm? However, this place was a long way from the border mountains and highways. If they wanted to start a war with the Great Xuan, they should first investigate the military situation in the north and not come to their own southeastern corner.

The more Ye Feian thought about it, the more confused he became, so he decided not to think about it anymore. In any case, he had already caught it.

At this time, Xiaoqing and Xue Kaishan had been hiding for nearly a month. If they didn't go down the mountain now, the two of them would become savages. As soon as the two came to a conclusion, they decided to change their appearances first before heading down the mountain to the Hidden Wind Valley.

After the two of them changed their appearances, they disguised themselves as two travelling merchants and brought the goods to a small town near River Qu County. After some investigation, he found out that the group of warriors he had been planning to meet up with a few days ago had been captured.

The two of them were like ants on a hot pan. Xue Kaishan in particular. If these warriors were to reveal their identities, it might affect the relationship between Da Xuan and the Kulman tribe. If the two parliaments were to offend each other and start another war, then he would be the sinner of the entire Kulman tribe.
